Stop
posting RonPaul comments, you will be blocked from this site. OWS does not endorse political candidates, especially RonPaul
Some people don't understand why we are censoring posts. This is not a free speech issue, if you don't agree with our agenda you shouldn't be writing
on our website.
We want free education, free health care, and unemployment benefits for everyone by taxing the 1% and most importantly we want to end capitalism!!
RonPaul talks about ending the Federal Reserve. This has nothing to do with Occupy Wall Street as this is a Government Agency that helps increase
employment by lowering interest rates. Occupy Wall Street wants a bigger government that can provide for the people, we don't want to decrease the
size of the government! That doesn't make any sense.
RonPaul also wants to stop the wars, which again has nothing to do with the OWS goals. While everyone has their own opinion about the wars, we need to
trust Obama who during his Peace Prize speech explained that some wars are necessary to achieve true peace in the world.
We agree to freedom of speech when promoting our agenda in public places but not from RonPaul supporters on our website. At the next meeting I will
try to get a consensus to block RonPaul supporters from our meetings and protests. Hopefully we can create a black list of these right wing extremists
and make sure they don't get in our way.

Is this satire or what?

link please or you're making it up

and you don't qualify as a newb
so no excuses

that said if true

they want to abolish capitalism AND tax the 1% ?

contradictory much?

and if they want bigger government... ? WTF?

as an anarchist and a sworn enemy of all government, and irrational authority,
they can definitely count me out,
and should tread carefully so as to not make an active enemy.

the fed's absolution by this moderator and tacit acceptance of the MIC is definitely not sounding kosher at all

neither the OP or the Occupy haters should be high-fiveing though, thinking OWS just lost another supporter though, as i'm on record here as not
believing in the effectiveness of mass movements, just their right to protest.

and i certainly won't be joining their side either.

so let's see that link Raelsatu, or it's a troll/shill post [attacking the post, not the poster]

funny how no one has bothered to look into the website and find out who's paying for it and who really owns it

Los Angeles?
apparently the names are being kept covered up,and at 2 in the morning i can't buy a blank dvd to boot up the latest Backtrack and run a proper whois
and get those names so i'll see ya all tomorrow
unless somebody else beats me to it

Ron Paul is just as bad as any of the other morons running for office, sorry buddy.

From the perspective of a communist/feminist perhaps, as shutting down the Department of Education would also be shutting down pro marxist, and pro
feminist propaganda that is often outright lies.

as opposed to let the states determine the curricula ?
good luck with that when half the country fails biology 101 in college because they were taught creationist "science" at school because their
particular states have the power to determine what kind of propaganda that is often outright lies is taught in schools.

also, there is a difference between a pagan and a communist/feminist, so please refrain from name calling as it makes you look not only immature, but
it immediately identifies you as an an irrational person who's opinions are therefore worthless.

Private investment firm is trying to patnent the name so that it would then be "copyright infringement" as an attempt to shut the movement down, ie
copyright the name and levy a claim of infringement all to shut the movement down.

My local one's account started as a Wepay account attached to a Wells Fargo account now we use a credit union.

just got up 1hr ago thanks for the reminder
please provide correct link then

also each occupy is a tribe
should you really be lumping them all together?

if OWS has been co-opted it doesn't mean the rest have
is what i'm saying.
edit used the address from op [who now that i think about it has provided little concerning links, hmmm]

Because thats just an agency that keeps some whois information anonymous. They are based in LA, not the actual owner. If you want to find out who the
owner of the actual site is you will need a subpoena.

Wells Fargo is a master cause for the recent financial calamity. We've been actively looking into credit unions to run the donation pages through so
that none of them are attached to any of the following entities :

Why would anyone allow someone as noisy as Alex jones take part of your movement with the very probable reality of this person hijacking the entire
thing with his already established resources in media influence.You simply have no idea where someone like A.J would take this but you can be fairly
sure he would make it into his own spectacle and front it.

Also david icky...lizards

They would be setting themselves up for much ridicule by allowing these 2 characters in and they would likely become very prominent faces in the media
connected to their movement,each spewing their own personal views about the whole topic and seeing as this movement has been intended for 'the people'
that would not have been ideal in anyway.

Maybe having certain characters like A.J onboard in advisory role (not limiting myself to A.J here) would have been of some benefit but A.J specificly
would in all likelyhood push himself to the front no matter what ,forming the movement into whatever he wants.Wich is more then likey just more
listeners for his radioshow.

I'll save you the time of reading it all. Alex Jones made a big stink about not being allowed to have his material on there ( presumably because that
means he isnt the center of attention). People on here divided into a few camps. One agreed with you that it would be stupid to have a nut like AJ on
the sight because he hijacks everything he can. Another group said that was OWS's right because it was a private website. Another group went onto an
AJ misguided rant about their understanding of the constitution and that because this was a public protest their website was public space too. And the
final group just loved AJ all day and talked about the great work he does waking people up. In the end it became I hate AJ or AJ is my savior. Nothing
was solved accept for the fact that not just AJ was banned. Jones ranted about it a few more times on his show, and here we are now

I have been away from ATS and other sources alike on purpose for quite a while and i wasnt aware that alex made a big fuzz about not being allowed to
use the movement (wich i do believe he would have).The fact that he did ,to me,shows nothing else but a grudge for not being allowed to exploit the
event.

Myself i am always a bit on the fence about A.J but in the end i dont trust him.

So now i guess i joined in on the bickering on wether or not A.J is a hero or not,All i can do is hope that some people walked away from it with a
healthy dis-trussed of people like A.J
